I added the like facebook button on my website, it works well except that the popup window doesn't show me the correct content.
Simple sample:
In the homepage of my website I set the title tag to its name, suppose it is called "the universe".
Then I go to another page that has a title like "the sun is hot". If I click "like it" on this page the popup content shows me "the universe". This is wrong, I want "the sun is hot".
How to set the correct content on the popup window? Does the button "like it" take the title tag or what else?
Thank you
Does the like button refer to the url of the homepage and not the page you are actually on? The way the like buttons work now is they pull the meta Open Graph tags from the url in the like button, so the meta tags on the page called by the button dictates the content.
If you make it the url the current page with the correct meta, that should fix it.
Run the page your like button is pointing at through Facebook's Debug Tool
This will show you the metadata Facebook is detecting for that URL, and/or clear the cache if you've updated the meta tags on your site recently

I am using Addthis plugin. I have an "F" icon on the page. I want it to work as recommend functionality.
is there anyway to do following
if somebody click on F, it should work as recommend is clicked, and on move over this F, it should just show the Count of recommend
we do not want to show standard recommend box with count
Secondly question, when i click on any like button it also show another Share Popup, but even even if i cancel this popup, still my timeline show i have recommended that particular page.. then what is use of that popup.
You can use the Facebook Dialog JavaScript to show a Share dialog for a custom button. Or use the Send Dialog button to create a private share dialog.
The "Comment Box" on the Like Button is optional, it's not required. If you enter a comment, it adds it to the Like post that appears on your timeline. But you can still like a page without entering a comment. A Like with a comment appears more prominent on the user's timeline.
I am currently using Floating Vertical Bar from Adthis For Sharing URL.
At first, everything appears to be correct but when i like a page using Facebook like button and reloads the page, the like button appears to be missing. There is no like button in that space.
When i move on to a new page which i have not liked the button will be there. Issue happens only when i like the page or url.
Can anyone help me on this.
Can anybody guide about how
does the new FB timeline incorporate the iframe for its pages.
Or is there any new stuffs coming in to replace these stufs?
The way you create and display your iFrame will be the same, except for a size change.
The new iFrame will be 810px wide, instead of 520px - existing tabs (apps) that are set to 520px will just be centered on the page, so they aren't "broken." Giving us 290 extra pixels is great!
You can no longer set a tab as "default landing page". Instead, users always see the main Timeline view and have to actively click through to custom apps.
To edit which apps you display, click the drop-down icon to the right of the tiles, click the ‘+’ button to import your custom apps, and then hover over them and click the pencil to swap them around.
If you have a contest or something on a tab which you would have wanted set as the "default landing page", you can create a post on your page which has a few sentences advertising such, with a link to the tab. You can then "pin" this post to the top of your page, so it will be the first thing users read. "Pinning" and "starring" on your Page act exactly like they do on your personal timeline.
Here's a good explanation of all changes
I have add like button on my webpage www.zabavax.com (iframe). Count is work ok, but like button doesn't share post (link) on Facebook.
P.S. Like button on the left side and after post. When i click on right or after post like button liked link dont show on my Timeline and on friends news feed
I think Facebook has changed the behaviour of the like button. A link will be shared ONLY if the user adds a comment.
Your like button in the top right corner of your URL functions correctly.
I was able to post to my profile when I clicked on it.
I believe your issue is with the first-time popup that appears (also with its own like button) When I clicked that like button the popup disappeared and I didn't manage to post to my profile.
I want to customize the text inside the send button pop up. I really have no clue how to do it. I am using the code i got from the fb dev page and changing the url with php.
I would like to change the other properties like picture, name and description since fb always show random images and texts.
Any clue?.
